Creating Virtual machines

by Ian Thatcher

Objective

The point of this project is to install virtual machines on your virtual server

at this point you should already have a virtual machine server if not you can find instructions to creating one here:

1. Login in to your virtual machine server with an ssh ex. ssh root@vmserver01.student.lab

2. now run xm list and if there are no errors we can proceed to install our vm

3. run xen-create-image –hostname=vmo1 –mac 00:16:3e:2c:c0:01 –role=udev

4. create the password you want for your virtual machine

5. the next step is to launch the virtual machine type xm create -c /xen/conf/vm01.cfg

6. your virtual machine is not up and running login into root and you are good to go
